432,500 dollars. That was the winning bid made for a portrait painted by an algorithm at New York's Christie's auction house. The artwork “Portrait of Edmond de Belamy” is just one of the latest examples of how technology and artificial intelligence are making their way into an activity, art, which until now was thought to be strictly the domain of humans.But there's more, including the humanoid AI-DA, the world's first robot artist, or the AGLAE, a particle accelerator working in the Louvre Museum, and… the robot whisperer. This is the name given to Madeline Gannon, an artist, researcher and lecturer in a Masterclass by SEAT at the SONAR+D.

It has only been a few weeks since the first photos of the all-new BMW X2 went around the world: Now, it is rolling off the assembly line at BMW Group Plant Regensburg. From now on, different types of drive train will be flexibly manufactured in Regensburg on a single production line – from models with internal combustion engines, to plug-in hybrids, to fully-electric vehicles. Up to 1,000 BMW 1 Series, BMW X1 and BMW X2 models are currently coming off the production line at BMW Group Plant Regensburg every workday – destined for customers worldwide.Lean, green, digital: With BMW iFACTORY, the BMW Group is also setting standards and redefining the future of automotive production at the Regensburg location. For example, BMW Group Plant Regensburg is the automotive industry's first plant worldwide to use an end-to-end digitalised and automated process for inspection, processing and marking of painted vehicle surfaces in standard production that relies on robots controlled by AI (artificial intelligence). For the plant, this represents another step towards the digital, intelligently connected factory.
Three decades after its debut in competition, the SEAT Toledo Marathon has returned to compete… and win. It has done so in the I RallyClassics Africa, a regularity and navigation test that allows classic rally-raid vehicles to demonstrate their performance in their natural habitat, the desert, a place for which the Toledo Marathon was developed in the 90s. So much so that he dreamed of participating in the Dakar Rally.After its presentation at the 1993 Barcelona Motor Show, and after two years of development, the SEAT Toledo Marathon debuted that year in Baja Portugal, scoring for the FIA World Cup for Off-Road Rallyes. The first big victory for the Spanish model did not take long to arrive. It was in the Grecia Raid, where Josep María Servià and Enric Oller led the double of two Toledo Marathons, followed by Antonio Rius and Manel Casanova. This was the first international victory in SEAT's history.The successful foray of the Toledo Marathon into off-road rallies continued in 1994, when the Spanish model was on the podium in the three events in which it participated: it was second in the Baja Portugal, third in the Baja Aragón and second in the Raid de Grecia. . This would be the last race for the model, after the decision made by SEAT Sport to make the jump to the World Rally Championship, where the brand would win a triple title in the 2 Liter World Championship (1996, 1997 and 1998).
